I was privileged to invite Helen to my weekly Communion Service at Hayes Valley. She participated very well in all services, and responded to the prayers with zest. I missed her when she re-located.

Unfortunately, due to my ministry schedule, I cannot attend the 1:00 PM Service.

Dear Helen is now at peace with God, her beloved husband, and all her family. May God bless and console you all.
